It is a blessing, a precious gift from God, to have choices, and Solomon encouraged young people to enjoy it: “Rejoice, O young man . . . and walk in the ways of your heart, and in the sight of your eyes” (Eccl. 11:9a). In other words, go ahead and make the choices you want to make. And then, Solomon added this caution: “But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment” (Eccl. 11:9).

The judgment for the choices we make in this life is certain, and it belongs to God, not to us. After we have made our choices here in this life, no choice remains for us at all. The result of our choices, God’s eternal Judgment, is not ours at all. May God help us make good choices now, so that God will choose to save us later.

About Me

I am a slave of Jesus who, in obedience to him, has come out of the fragmented religious system of Christianity. I love God's people and want all of us who love the Lord Jesus to be together. This can never happen inside Christianity because that religion is the very thing that divides us. If God is ever going to answer the prayer Jesus prayed in John 17 and make all His children one, it will be accomplished only by the power of the holy Spirit, and it will happen apart from the hundreds of conflicting doctrines and traditions that make up the Christian religion. We come out of all that confusion to offer ourselves to God for healing -- healing from our own ideas and ways. Let's all just admit that we know nothing, and are nothing, and that we need help from Jesus, and let him make us one!
